Latest Pipeworks Releases and Updates

you're so right, why try to improve on perfection

 

Is the barrel aged stuff FWB and SS only or are us regular assholes going to have a shot at it?

 

You posted 1 and 3 the same, did u mean murderous?

 

Funny thing is I prefer Scotch Ales and Milk stouts to barley wines, however I find I like EC barrels over buffalo trace and heaven hill. That said I can't wait to try all of those.

 

So the barrel aged Coffee Break Abduction is a separate release then?

 

Just a heads up. EC barrels are Heaven Hill.

 

Had all 3 at fobab; they are excellent.

 

Yeas that was draft only.

 

Sounds like this is only available to club members but maybe it sees very limited additional distro? Any news?

 

But it is being released at some point, yeah? That was the impression I got last month when they posted the label. Maybe it's just not bottled yet.

 

Fairly certain that's standard abduction. The coffee break was in very small barrels.

 

Ah. Yep, you're right. Apparently I can't read.

 

Just opened up a bottle of Square Grouper and all I can say is holy shit!

Surely, you guys must be thinking about making more of this stuff. I got to admit that I haven't had everything in Pipework's massive arsenal, but this is my new favorite from the ones I have tasted so far! Oh for the love of Krom, I need to get on some Sloppy Seconds action!

 

as luck would have it we 800# of Mosaic and Citra each fell into our lap for 2014 yesterday… so we plan to brew each 20x in 2014 in an alternating basis… so quadruple batch of Citra one month, then possibly Square Grouper or something similar the next month…. >=) yes, that was a good day…

 

but the day before yesterday we had no ability to brew SQ again because… mosaic was unobtainable…

 

we chose 12oz bottles instead of bombers for you regular assholes =p… meaning we would have almost twice as many bottles to spread the love with...each barrel aged release is between 1500-2000 12oz bottles… FWB will make up for max of 800 bottles, but more likely 400-600. So there will be bottles for Sloppy and regulars, but we're doing a staggered release to make sure FWB get their bottles without issue. We'll do the next release, of this same bottling, in Jan/Feb, and the 3rd when our shop opens… which I'll go into more on later… but to boil it down the bottle shop space isn't available for us to occupy yet… so we're in a holding pattern but the lease is signed.

 

If you ever need an architect...(May be convinced to work for beer)

 

Well, we have thought about creating an email address and extension for Art Vandalay for vendors we don't want to deal with, but we thought it would be too obvious...
